Not working
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ever use it stops and gives a code. I’ve cleaned the dryer vent. I clean the lint trap every use. I’ve even changed out the connecting duct from dryer to vent. I’ve spent half as much money trying to fix everything around it for it to still not work. On delicates setting, it does run the full time but the clothes always come out damp and needs more time.

Meh

I would recommend this to a friendInefficient dryer
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very poor performance, the first one I bought doesn’t do well so I have to replace it. But unfortunately both do not do good. After a circle of 54 minutes, the clothes are still wet as if I took them out of the washer. I am now struggling to figure out if I am missing out the tech part on YouTube.

Motor Failure within 1 Year of Purchase
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This dryer served me well until LITERALLY ONE WEEK after my 12 month warranty expired. I call an appliances repairman out and he states it is a faulty motor, and "Even if you were loading bricks inside this thing it shouldn't give out within a year, I've seen this alot on the newer LG models". I called Best Buy, who deferred me to LG. LG told me it would be $350 flat rate to repair it, but there is currently a "2 to 4 week waitlist". I'm willing to wager the waitlist is due to ongoing faulty LG products. I am extremely disappointed with this purchase, with Best Buy, and with LG. Unless this situation is remedied quickly, I will never be purchasing appliances through Best Buy or purchasing LG appliances ever again.

Posted .Hi, Lolita. Thank you for sharing your experience with the LG Dryer (DLE3470W) model. We appreciate your feedback and understand that the noise issue, especially when drying larger items like comforters, can be concerning. We strive to provide reliable, high-quality products and that exceed our customer's needs and expectations. To address the noise you're experiencing, we recommend checking a few things. First, ensure that the dryer is level on the floor, as an unbalanced dryer can cause vibrations and noise during operation. Additionally, make sure that the drum is not overloaded, as this can also lead to excessive noise when drying larger items. For more information, visit https://www.lg.com/us/support/help-library/lg-dryer-common-noises-during-the-dry-cycle--20153081341056. If the noise persists, it may be helpful to inspect the dryer for any loose items or debris that could be causing the sound. If you need further assistance or have additional questions, please send us a private message on social media @LGUSSupport, and our team will be more than happy to assist you further. We want to ensure you have a positive experience with your dryer for many years to come. ^Juvy
Returned it for another brand
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wrinkle prevention cycle not effective. Returned it for another brand.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from LG Digital Customer Care
Posted .Hi there, GrantJ. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We understand that the wrinkle prevention cycle on your DLE3470W dryer didn't meet your expectations. Your feedback is important, and we'd like to assist you further.
The wrinkle care cycle is designed to periodically tumble clothes without heat after the main drying cycle to help prevent wrinkles from setting in. For best results, it's often helpful to remove clothes promptly after the cycle finishes. Overloading the dryer can also reduce the effectiveness of this feature.

I would recommend this to a friendWorst customer service/experience
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is not the dryers problem but please don't buy this if you think you are getting WIFI connectivity and App controlled because this dryer does neither and Best Buy has falsely advertised/misrepresented this product. The manufacturer responded to my email with this link I sent them and told me that they filed a report to address this issue.

I would recommend this to a friendNot worth the money!!!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have had problems since day one! Had service call 2 weeks after buying it fixed it for about a week then the banging began again. Another service a week later only to be told have to order parts but it will take awhile since it’s a new model. They won’t be able to fix it for another month. So I guess I still have to go to the laundromat to dry clothes, but my first payment is due 2 weeks before the dryer will be fixed. Don’t recommend.
